MAX ACCELERATION

WHAT IS IT?
The maximum acceleration the bat experiences during the swing, measured in “g’s”. To be clear, acceleration is not how fast the bat is moving; that’s barrel speed. Acceleration determines how quickly you can reach that top speed.

ON-FIELD IMPACT
More acceleration means that you can reach your max barrel speed quicker. Higher acceleration lets you wait a little longer before you decide to swing, and in some cases means that you can maintain higher bat speed for more of the swing.

LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT

2016 Jr. National Showcase

Max Crabbe is a 2018 C/1B with a 6-3 205 lb. frame from Irvine, CA who attends Newport Harbor HS. Extra-large, athletic frame with broad shoulders and physical strength proportioned throughout frame. Ran a 7.34 60-yard dash. Primary catcher, receives the ball out front nicely, gains some ground with lower half but gets upper body dominant at release, softer hands, full arm action coming through backside with lower arm slot, accurate throws, arm strength will continue to develop. Righthanded hitter, begins with very wide base and medium hand set in the box. Strong lower half, incorporates well with leg lift trigger which is timed well in swing. Does a nice job of generating extension out front and shows bat speed through the zone, works pull side with comfort and generates nice carry off the barrel when square. Very good student.
